Foreigner dies after ingesting 30 packets of cocaine

This confirmed police theory that Arrindell a "swallower" — a drug mule who swallows illegal drugs as a way of transporting it clad only in a white boxer shorts, was found dead with froth at the mouth on the floor of an apartment at a guesthouse at Crown Point around 7.30 pm on April 27.

A four-tablet packet of Lomicil, with three tablets removed, along with a box of fried chicken, were also found in the apartment.

Lomicil, medical sources reported, is used to stop one from excreting. Arrindell had reportedly arrived in Tobago on a flight from St Maarten via Antigua the previous day.

His travel documents indicated that he was scheduled to leave the island on a flight to Amsterdam on the very evening that his body was found. The discovery was made by the guesthouse owner/manager after Arrindell failed to check out to catch his flight and was not seen since he booked into the guest-house.
